    Description

      When a system user changes the password of any user through Security app, no track of the system user that made the change is stored in log-audit, always systemUser is set.

      It seems that the update is being done in the system context and because of that reason the user is not being written down:

      private static String getUser() {
              if (MgnlContext.isSystemInstance()) {
                  return "SystemUser";
              }
              try {
                  if(MgnlContext.hasInstance() && MgnlContext.getUser() != null) {
                      return MgnlContext.getUser().getName();
                  }
              }catch (Exception e) {
                  return "system user";
              }
              return "user not set";
          }
      

      I tested it in Magnolia 5.3.9 and Magnolia 5.4.7 (demoauthor.magnolia-cms.com)
